Keepio sharing service takes the concept of finding a marketplace for your used items and takes it one step further by integrating a social media element. The Keepio sharing service lets you connect your profile -- and the items that you are either looking for or want to sell -- to your Twitter and Facebook accounts.
The idea behind the social sharing service is that by connecting users to their social networks to purchase or sell items, friends can purchase from each other with a type of confidence that does not exist when the same interaction occurs online between strangers.
Keepio sharing service is a clever way of combining a platform for selling items online with the trust that comes from dealing with one's social circle.
